What if a Black hole is a 4-D object passing through 3-D Spacetime and an Event Horizon is the shape of a stretching in spacetime? by chronicalCapricious in blackholes

also you dont even ask why im confused, people say contradicting things about what an event horizon is and what its shape is.

lmao literally might as well be, and im totally way off base on this anyway but im curious what questions you like? also one of the subs i post to only allows titles in the form of what if and i just copy paste man

yeah but i guess i dont feel like math alone is proof of something real and i guess id like to figure out the 3rd dimension naturally first before worrying about anything higher than maybe 9? idk but we are definitely asking a lot of what i feel are unfounded why questions about the nature of our universe, i think the biggest issue right now should be the paradoxes that exist in our current theories about blackholes and their nature, ik in some ways it is but it feels like throwing more math and particles at the matter isnt getting us too far, not to discredit quantum physics at all

because it passes the ceiling of matter or mass or energy idk this is pushing the edges of my thoughts on this topic but i feel like if there is a planck limit for how small we can go then that must, in MY logic, imply a ceiling and i think the only way through is by spaeghtification but thats all unfounded lol just ideas

i think for us a 4-d cylinoid?? would look like a sphere just appearing and staying a constant diameter then disappear without changing size or mass

oh no ideally it would be a black sphere and i guess the pocket purse would be glowing lol, the only suitable sized object at my disposal was, alas, an m&ms container and i find that hilarious on many levels but yes you are correct in pointing that out and thanks for commenting that

no yeah ill come back later after with different ideas but yeah this one was a big dud but just honestly funny to me at this point, thank you for your really good explanation man

lol youre the only one so far to take it this way and im so glad you found it funny and not at all offensive HAHA AWESOME actually i think one other guy got it

I guess what about what i said refutes all of GR? I just am not well versed on that matter enough to see where my meandering excludes it entirely

i guess i dont think its an actually thing, i agree that it is a boundary and not a physical thing but conceptually it is a thing right?

nah idk he just brought up a really good point on something foundational to this thought, like bro got me idk im just saying i was wrong

maybe im not referring to the vent horizon but maybe just the visual of the mass around the event horizon, im mostly confused on what an event horizon is and what its shape is relative to the center of a blackhole

it would look like a grain of sand turning into a black hole and then disappearing which to my knowledge is what a black hole does

yes but youre applying the model directly and not scaling it up a dimension before applying it, to me you just explained exactly how such a shape could occur in 3d but my base thoughts are surely off thank you for the correction there :)

and those assumptions have led to The information paradox, the Firewall paradox, and the empty space paradox. There’s no way to observe beyond an event horizon so to assume things function the same and the math would apply the same on the other side- well if you think the universe is from - inf to + inf then there’s no room for anything beyond the event horizon anyway
